• Size: New drivers should choose a car that is small and easy to maneuver. This will make it easier to learn the basics of driving and to avoid accidents.

In some states, you may also need to complete a driver's education course. This course will teach you the basics of driving and help you prepare for the written and road tests.

Once you have your driver's license, it's time to learn the basics of driving. This includes learning how to:

• Start and stop the car
• Steer the car
• Use the accelerator and brake pedals
• Shift gears
• Park the car

You can learn the basics of driving by taking driver's education courses, practicing with a friend or family member, or taking lessons from a driving instructor.

Once you have mastered the basics of driving, you may want to learn some more advanced driving techniques. These techniques can help you improve your driving skills and make you a safer driver.

Some advanced driving techniques include:

• Defensive driving: Defensive driving is a set of techniques that can help you avoid accidents. These techniques include being aware of your surroundings, anticipating the actions of other drivers, and taking evasive action if necessary.

You can perform some car maintenance tasks yourself, but others should be left to a mechanic. If you are not sure how to perform a particular task, consult your car's owner's manual or a mechanic.

Driving safety is a top priority for all drivers, but it is especially important for new drivers. There are a number of things that new drivers can do to stay safe on the road, including:
